Thought for the Dazed

I've had to give up that Distance Learning course as I was having trouble seeing the teacher.

Shaky Hands..

01degree
I'm going to claim I was going for an artistic effect...

I was down in City Hall again today doing my degree warmup thing. Warmup is a bit of an understatement, it was like an oven in there during the afternoon. I took a picture of "my lot" in the audience. Unfortunately I forgot to hold the camera still. I know I wasn't shaking from the cold....

Whitby and Robin Hood

01Whitby
A good place to eat a "Whitby Kipper". And a nice fish mobile too. But I think they would taste a bit woody.

Last time we went to Whitby it rained. All the time. But we still enjoyed it. So this time we went in the dry. Even better.

Whitby Bay looking good.

I think the captain was just showing off for us.

After we went to Whitby we stopped off at Robin Hoods Bay. No idea why it is called that, but it is a wonderful place.

Weekend Away

01NorthLanding
So much for Bliss....

We are having a weekend away. This weekend. So the car has been loaded with essentials and some beer (or is beer an essential?) and we have scooted off to Flamborough, a village on the coast about an hour's drive from our house. Arrived just in time to wander down to North Landing and take some pictures. The evening was very kind to us. The sea was like a mill pond and I got some rather nice shots.

Upstaged by a dog...

Did the final Ace lecture today. Another splendid bunch of students and a good time had by all.

Digby the digital dog drives them wild.

I don't know. You spend forty minutes showing off amazing technology, telling wonderfull jokes and so on. Then Digby comes on and kicks a ball and the crowd goes wild!

Anyway, it was great fun. I've put a little page together for those of you what want to have a go at the programming side of things. You can get the program I was writing from here. And you can find out about starting to program here.
